And in the Moment, I Knew You

In her new series of ethereal paintings, AOTH transports us back to the past. The themes explored across each work—uncertainty, risk-taking, joy, loneliness and connection—are at once universal and intimate, taking us on a journey across time and space through past relationships and into childhood. In Look Back and Laugh, the viewer is compelled to contemplate the cacophony of emotions that precede a relationship, every single scenario possible and present in each moment. The possibility and promise is a tension across the series that never quite breaks, but dissolves into the next emotion, choice and relationship—and next abstract work.

In “And in the Moment, I Knew You,” AOTH tells the story of seeing someone anew, when everything has changed and the other person is no longer who they thought you were.
